    So I purchased a Bilstein 5100 suspension front and rears with eibach coils and ome top hats for 375 and just today I saw a deal for a trd pro 4Runner suspension should I stick to the 5100 set up or go with the 4Runner suspension? Thanks in advanced

    I’m pretty sure you have to modify the T4R suspension to make it fit the Tacoma, it’s not a direct swap. I’d stick with the 5100s as you already have them

    Same here they’re also so cheap that if anything happens to the 5100’s replacing them won’t make your pockets hurt

    I was able to ride in my friends pro for a few hours and drove it back for an hour. I personally don't see much difference in the ride and drivability compared to my 5100 set up.
